559: Shocking! That night, the prison was filled with maniacal people laughing non-stop!

Just as Su Qingge and Lin Xuan, with a telepathic connection, both looked up at the brilliant starry sky, thinking of each other... In Modu City, Tilanqiao Prison.

The night was as dark as ink, and the prison’s outline, etched by the moonlight, appeared particularly stark and cold.

It was like an isolated island, cut off from the world, quietly drifting in the river of time, or perhaps a forgotten world, so silent that it made one’s heart pound with unease.

East District, inside the prison.

Dim yellow light weakly spilled onto the narrow corridor, casting mottled shadows.

Around them, apart from the occasional footsteps of patrolling prison guards, there was no other sound, as if even the wind feared the solemnity here and dared not visit easily.

Behind the iron bars, in the individual cells, only the faint snores of prisoners occasionally broke the almost solidified silence, yet were quickly swallowed by the deeper darkness...

“Ouch, ouch, ouch, it hurts so much! It’s killing me.”

“Those damned bastards, their blows were too heavy!”

“Don’t let me get a chance, or I’ll definitely return it a thousandfold, a hundredfold!!!”

“You know, even a tiger doesn’t devour its cub.”

“My son, Lin Xuan, has the potential to be a richest man. He’s just throwing a tantrum with me right now!”

...“Once he calms down completely, he’ll surely realize the truth that [Only a father is good in this world, a child with a father is like a treasure]...”

“I have 95% absolute certainty!!!”

“My Good Son will definitely find a way to get me out in the end.”

“Anyone who dared to lay a hand on me today, I will make them repay it a hundredfold in the future—”

“Hiss~~~ Ouch, ouch, ouch, damn it... To think of me, Lin Jianjun, back then, I was also a prominent and domineering Executive in Modu, dominating the business world...”

“...”

In the dead of night.

In a double cell, a stream of complaints and curses continuously emanated.

The speaker, curled up on the hard bunk, was Lin Jianjun.

Because of the sudden “gang fight” that afternoon.

At this moment, bruised and swollen, he ached all over, like a stray dog battered by wind and rain, helpless and fragile.

His Good Son’s “sabotage” had caused his status within the prison to plummet.

In the past, those subordinates who used to grovel before him, now, due to their hatred for his earlier boasting and their realization that their own release was hopeless, almost all treated Lin Jianjun as a punching bag, hitting or scolding him whenever they met.

It could be said that... Lin Jianjun’s treatment, compared to before, had almost fallen from heaven to hell, instantly becoming the lowest rung in the prison.

Anyone could come and punch, kick, or boss him around.

Especially after learning that Lin Jianjun was once an Executive of a multi-billion yuan group, the prisoners became even more intrigued.

Out of a rich-hating mentality, this group of scoundrels who had always lived at the bottom of society all wanted to experience what it felt like to bully a multi-billion yuan Executive?!!!

—_—✧.

After all, under normal circumstances, Lin Jianjun and they were not from the same world, belonging to a wealthy class that was fundamentally out of reach.

Now that they had this opportunity, they naturally wanted to “cherish” him well... “Uncle Lin, you should stop wailing.”

“If you disturb the prison bosses next door, they’ll fix you up even worse tomorrow...”

“A little impatience will spoil great plans! Just bear with it a bit longer!”

“Maybe your son will soon come to his senses and pull some strings to get you out!”

“...”

On the hard bunk opposite Lin Jianjun, Song Ze, also wearing a striped prison uniform, quietly offered a few words of advice.

Putting himself in Lin Jianjun’s shoes, he could understand his unaccustomedness to the change in status and recognized the fear beneath his bluster.

But circumstances were stronger than people; what was coming would always come.

Now, the only thing they could do was pray and keep a low profile.

“Hmph, hmph... Do they dare?!”

“My son is Lin Xuan, how dare they touch me?”

“...”

Hearing Song Ze’s advice, a trace of fear involuntarily flashed in Lin Jianjun’s pupils.

His words, however, still sounded outwardly fierce but inwardly timid.

Only his voice had unconsciously become much softer, and his heart was already in a panic.

In fact, he wasn’t an idiot; he knew the possibility of Lin Xuan saving him was minimal.

The reason he kept mentioning his Good Son as a savior was simply to borrow prestige and deceive himself.

As things stood, “Lin Xuan’s father” was his only remaining talisman to bluff and protect himself.

If he couldn’t make good use of the remaining “prestige” of his Good Son, within three days, he would inevitably become the target of muscular men picking up soap, living a life worse than death!!!!!

The thought of the terrifying consequences of his chrysanthemum being breached sent shivers down Lin Jianjun’s spine. ┌(.Д.)┐

...“Uncle Lin! What do you think happened in the Women’s Prison Area in the West District?”

“Why does it seem like there’s been constant commotion over there tonight?”

“Earlier, a large group of fully armed prison guards were transferred from our area to theirs; could something serious have really happened?”

“...”

Perhaps seeing Lin Jianjun’s suppressed frustration, Song Ze proactively changed the subject, discussing the strange events that had occurred in the prison not long ago.

Half an hour ago, they had watched through the iron bars as a large group of prison guards, looking hurried, assembled and ran over.

Among them were even some guards who had already changed into civilian clothes, intending to go home after their night shift, yet they re-equipped themselves with helmets, bulletproof vests, handcuffs, tear gas, batons, and other gear.

Batch after batch, they ran past them with serious expressions.

“Who knows?!” Lin Jianjun replied distractedly, “What kind of commotion can those women cause?”

“It can’t be that someone is trying to escape, right?”

“Even if someone wanted to escape, with so many prison guards + the impenetrable walls outside the prison + electric fences, they wouldn’t be able to get out.”

“Do you think this is like watching ‘The Shawshank Redemption’? That’s a movie; in reality, you have to accept your fate.”

“What kind of waves can a group of defenseless women stir up?”

“...”

Upon hearing this, Song Ze somewhat disagreed; the prison guards had deployed such a large force, there must be some unknown reason.

It was highly probable that something major had happened in the Women’s Prison Area.

Because, from his observation, the weapons and equipment carried by the prison guards were only used in movies to suppress prison riots... It shouldn’t affect the Men’s Prison Area, right?

For some reason, Song Ze’s right eyelid had been twitching violently since nightfall.

As the saying goes: a twitching left eye brings wealth, a twitching right eye brings disaster.

He always felt that something terrible was about to happen, and a certain ominous premonition in his heart grew stronger and stronger.

But then, he thought again that he was just worrying needlessly.

So many fully armed prison guards had rushed over.

No matter what commotion happened in the Women’s Prison Area, even if it was a once-in-a-century riot, it still wouldn’t cause much trouble... It seems I was thinking too much...

“Eh? Listen, why does the commotion outside seem to be getting louder and louder?”

At this moment, Lin Jianjun sat up in surprise, leaning close to the high iron window to listen.

As he clearly heard the sounds continuously approaching from the direction of the Women’s Prison Area... The astonished expression on his face gradually turned into disbelief.

Only because from the growing commotion, he heard human wails, curses, screams, and countless... maniacal laughter—!!!!!!!!!
